I took advantage of the cracking weather we had Sunday and washed and polished the car – first time in yonks I’ve done this but I was dismayed to find a ding in each door. This left me fuming, my car is not even a year old and already a couple of careless idiots have smacked their doors into my car while in a car park.

Why can’t people be more careful? I always wrap a thumb around the edge of my door when opening it to stop dinging other peoples cars, why can’t they do the same?
